title: [Absence of ipsilateral retinal projections after very early prenatal destruction of one eye in mice].
abstract: Mice embryos underwent unilateral destruction of one eye, in utero between 13 (E 13) and 17 days (E 17) of gestation, or at birth. The extension of the retinal projections from the remaining eye was determined, after birth, using the technique of anterograde transport of HRP. The results show that enucleations performed between E 15 and birth (E 19) result in the formation of an augmented ipsilateral pathway, the terminal extent of which does not depend greatly upon the exact timing of enucleation. However, following enucleations at E 13, the projections from the remaining eye are only crossed, there being practically no projections to the ipsilateral side of the brain.
